Published information states that women-led startups, small production groups, and small to medium-sized agricultural enterprises qualify to apply. FAO emphasized that this initiative could help sustain productive activities across various regions.
The project includes three separate windows of adaptive grant assistance, each with specific conditions, financial amounts, and requirements. Further details about selection criteria and application procedures have been made available by FAO.
